When I went to Youzhou at the beginning of the year, I once asked Diao Chan to be a matchmaker, and among the refugees from Xuzhou, Qingzhou, I picked out those who sold their children or were in embarrassment, and went on a blind date for the soldiers of the people's army. Diao Chan was born as a singer, and she is not very good at doing this kind of organizational thing, so the progress is a little slow. Later, with the assistance of Gao Mian and others, it was immediately smooth. In this way, 300 families were selected, all of whom were diligent farmers, and their daughters were also virtuous.

This time, Yuan Xi was going to leave for Youzhou, so he gathered these people, formed a convoy and set off together, and asked Yuan Shao for a troop to escort him.

Zhen Ji didn't think about it for a few days, and Yuan Xi didn't come back for many days, and he was sick again. In a hurry to rush back, the two had to be separated for a while. On this day, he stood silently beside Yuan Xi and watched him sort out things.

"If the two love for a long time, how can it be in the morning and twilight."

Yuan Xi knew her thoughts, so he explained. The next time I come back, it's time for the Battle of Guandu. This next year is even more critical. You have to train a strong army quickly, help the officer to win, and protect yourself from your brothers. In order to survive well in the future, I have to work harder now.

Diao Chan sneered beside him: "He naturally doesn't care about Chaochao and Twilight, I heard that he even has a personal guard in Youzhou, and he is alive and well." ”

"Big sister! I can sue you for slander. Where did you hear that from? ”

Diao Chan said: "What General Zilong told me, is there anything wrong?" is still a bearded girl, presumably to change her taste, men, they are all eating in the bowl and looking at the pot. The wife at home stays alone in the empty room, and she spends flowers and plants outside. ”

Yuan Xi said: "Wait, this is too ugly." Zilong, a little rabbit cub, how can he eat inside and out, and say everything? ”

Hearing him say this, I saw Diao Chan and Zhen Ji looking at him with scrutinizing eyes.

Yuan Xi hurriedly got up and explained around Zhen Ji: "She is a woman with five big and three thick, her strength is great, similar to those old mothers, her waist is as thick as a bucket, and I usually treat me as a man." It's amazing when I shoot arrows, it's more accurate than me. You also know that appreciating tastes, impossible. ”

At this time, I can only be sorry for Lou Jingshu, in fact, Lou Jingshu, who has grown hair and turned a little whiter, still looks good, not so unbearable. It's just that it's not a little bit, how can you make people believe that they have no two hearts.

Zhen Ji was amused and said, "The concubine naturally believes in her husband." As I said before, if the husband has a woman, he can also bring it back. ”

Diao Chan pouted and said, "It's still my sister's kindness." ”

At this time, Zhao Yun came to Yuan Xi to discuss things, and it seemed that there were some things for him to decide. After waiting for a while, Yuan Xi returned to the house, but heard the two girls chatting at the door.

I only heard Zhen Ji say: "In this way, my husband will be unhappy, right?" ”

Diao Chan said: "So I'm responsible for stimulating him, and you come to the round." We've just worked well together, so we'll do the same in the future. A man is like a wild horse, if you tighten it too hard, he won't be able to run fast, but if you let go of the reins completely, he won't be able to run around. I'll be the bad guy, and you'll be responsible for being the good guy. In this way, he will value you more and more. ”

Zhen Ji said: "Wouldn't that make my sister worry?" ”

Diao Chan said: "What are you afraid of? Am I his sister-in-law, he doesn't dare to do anything to me......"

Hearing the two girls say this, Yuan Xi laughed dumbly, it turned out that he was secretly calculating himself, and he explained for a long time. However, he didn't care about this level of tricks, and slowly retreated, without exposing them.

After everything was in order, Yuan Xi was back on the road. This time they decided to go from Yecheng to the plains, and then make a detour to the north via Nanpi.

"Every time you pass by these places, you have to make a topographic map. Maybe I will come here again in the future, march and fight, and I don't know the geography is a headache. The topographic map of Youzhou, I have asked Tian Chou to draw it. It is better to have a topographic map of Qingzhou and Jizhou. ”

Zhao Yun and Lu Fang drew the terrain separately, but after all, they were not from a professional class, and the markers they made were much worse than each other.

Lu Fang said: "Relying on us to paint like this, I'm afraid we won't be able to draw anything?" Why don't you find two clever people, learn from Mr. Tian how to identify the terrain, and then send them out to investigate the terrain along the mountains and rivers, and finally draw the terrain back. ”

Yuan Xi's eyes lit up and said, "This is a good idea. Professional things have to be done by professional people. The most important thing is to organize training. Dyeing cloth requires training in dyeing cloth, and striking iron requires training in striking iron. It's always the master who takes the apprentice, and the craft can't be passed down one by one. It is necessary to quickly popularize the advanced experience ......"

Lu Fang recorded it quickly, and hurriedly said: "Second son, you speak slowly, I don't have time to remember." ”

All the way back to Youzhou, at this time, the homeless people who walked along the other road also arrived with their families. Yuan Xi instructed to go down and organize a blind date, as long as you look at it, you can match, and also solve a house in Jixian or Yijing. This caused a sensation in the people's army, and many veterans remembered Yuan Xi's promise back then. In Sangyuan that year, Yuan Xi completed the reorganization from the first camp to the people's army, and made a promise, and now it has finally been partially fulfilled.

In Jicheng, the trio composed of Tian Chou, Han Yan and Wen Hui is working well. Since the beginning of autumn and winter, snow disasters have occurred in various places, and many roads have been blocked by snow. Tian Chou and others sent special personnel to inspect the local area and organize the county order to distribute relief to ensure that there was no chaos.

When Yuan Xi arrived, the three of them were gathering to eat, although there was no such way as hot pot, but at that time, it was also a very high enjoyment to warm up mutton in Zhongding and eat a cup.

Tian Chou saw Yuan Xi and hurriedly said, "The second son returned so soon?" ”

Yuan Xi shook off the snow on his body, took a breath of hot air, sat down in front of the hot pot, and said, "If you have something, you will come back first." I am relieved of you. What's going on with Lord Han? ”

Han Yan frowned with a sad face, everyone saw it, and when he heard Yuan Xi's words, he sighed.

Tian Chou said: "There is a county order named Han Li in Tuyin, who colluded with the local wealthy clan to kill five members of a family, and also embezzled a large amount of food and salary, and we have already obtained evidence and arrested him. Lord Han sighed at this. ”

Yuan Xi said: "There are still such people? Who reported it? ”

Tian Chou said: "The observer we sent over, a young man named Li Lang, also came at the beginning of the year to recruit talents. When we got the news of him, we immediately asked people to go to the mound to get people, and sure enough, we found some letters in his house, and dug up the incriminating evidence according to the map......"

Yuan Xi said with a smile: "This young man has a future, pay attention to it." He picked up the lamb stew and took a sip, and suddenly a warmth melted.

He asked again, "Then what is there to worry about Lord Han?" ”

Han Yan said: "This Han Li is my friend in the past, and he is quite talented. It's a pity. ”

Tian Chou asked, "Second son, what do you think this person should do?" This person's background is somewhat complicated......"

Yuan Xi groaned: "According to the crime, if the murder is true, it will definitely be beheaded." The Son of Heaven broke the law and was guilty of the same crime as the common people. The more talented a person breaks the law, the heavier the sentence. Whether it's corruption or bribery, we don't have a standard yet. It is necessary to organize people to improve these legal provisions as soon as possible. This kind of thing will only increase in the future. Remember to add an article to the text: The right of interpretation is mine. In case of indecision, according to the routine, there is no precedent, according to our subjective judgment. ”

"There's another thing that's very strange." Tian Chou said: "Someone from Jiangdong came to us to buy horses. ”

"Buying a horse?"
